"Chelsea" mocked "Arsenal" for their defeat in the Champions League final
Chelsea Football Club targeted their rivals Arsenal on social media following the events of the Champions League final held on Saturday evening. Zamin.uz reported on this.
In a brutal match held in Budapest, the Arsenal team missed their opportunity in a penalty shootout against Paris Saint-Germain. After this defeat, Chelsea fans and club representatives decided to remind everyone who the true masters of football in London are.
According to Goal.com, this move was not just simple advertising, but a subtle irony directed at the opponent. While the Arsenal players were still feeling the pain of defeat and recovering, Chelsea posted a tour of the stadium on their official Instagram page.
At the center of the announcement's image were the Champions League trophy and two stars indicating the club's two-time victory. The phrase "visit London's home of trophies" attached to the post coincided exactly with the moment Arsenal midfielder Gabriel Magalhaes failed to convert the decisive penalty.
This timing was not accidental and caused additional bitterness for the rival fans. The main and extra time of the match ended in a one-one draw.
However, the Paris club prevailed in the penalty lottery. In this way, Chelsea strengthened its position as the only club in the London area to have won the Champions League trophy.
This situation was a major psychological blow for the North London representatives. Mikel Arteta did not hide his emotions, emphasizing how difficult it is to accept losing on penalties after playing consistently until the final.
The team's midfielder Declan Rice also stated that despite a good season, the ending was tragic and that the team would return even stronger. Source: Goal.com
